In 1951 L. Ron Hubbard wrote a book called Self Analysis in which he said, "Probably the most neglected friend you have is you."
The other day I was going through a rough spot and I pulled this out and this line resonated. I realized I needed to make friends with myself again, and started using the techniques in the book. Within half an hour I was completely back to battery and then some.
Not a bad use of half an hour of my always-too-busy life. I got more done that afternoon than I'd accomplished in weeks in my previous "I'll get through it" state of mind.
Try it out some time. You can get the book online at the Bridge Publications web site.
I like to help others and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days.— ScientologyFounder, L. Ron Hubbard
